Thanks A Camera,

Yes, i thought about cutting some sort of guide then using that as a reference to the width along the length.. I do have some digital callipers to test my self cut guide for accuracy.

Appreciate the comments - I know its going to take me some time!

I did purchase extra lengths of standard extrusion so i can play around with the base to make it more rigid, or perhaps create more height etc.

Like I have said before - the image is there but I am likely to change things as I go along
